Craig Denney’s multi-meta-layered and recursively self-referential “rags to riches and back again” masterwork needs to be seen AND DOWNLOADED by every fan of Le Bad Cinema. “The Astrologer” contains sumptuously gorgeous, widescreen location shots of Thailand, Kenya, Long Beach CA, and an anonymous graveyard which are all mystically interconnected with rough edits that will make your eyes bleed.
